Farmers Market

An app project I’ve been open to doing is opening up farmers market for those who live in the South Bronx.  It’s been a known fact that lower income communities are deprived of healthy nutritious produce, that’s also affordable, organic and locally grown.  An app is already developed but I’m thinking of augmenting its feature and functionality.  Perhaps adding healthy recipes and SMS alerts.
